A frozen toilet tube can affect an entire family in the cold winter months. Pipes can be frozen in old houses or in piping systems that need repair. This condition can usually be solved if it is treated in time, but it is important to solve the underlying problem to make sure it does not happen again. Adequate insulation is usually the key to preventing frozen pipes. Never use a torch or an extreme heating device to defrost the pipe as this is a serious fire hazard and can ruin your pipes.

Instructions
1 towels, wrap cloths or a heating pad around the frozen pipe if you can reach it.
2 Turn on all the hot water faucets in the house. As the hot water heats the pipes, it will also heat the neighboring pipes, helping the warm toilet pipe.
3 Pour hot water into the bathroom. Continue adding more and more hot water to the toilet. As the ice begins to melt, you can add hot water. The addition of hot water too early for a frozen system can cause cracks in the ceramic. Waiting until the water level appears starts to lower a little and then add hot water to the cup.
4 Continue adding hot water to the bathroom until it is completely erased. Remove the heating pad.
